Our children are watching us live and what we are shouts louder than anything we can say.

Success is focusing the full power of all you are on what you have a burning desire to achieve.

Those who hope to avoid all failure and misfortune are trying to live in a fairyland; wise people realistically accept failures as a part of life and build philosophies to meet them and make the best of them.

The best leaders are very often the best listeners. They have an open mind. They are not interested in having their own way but in finding the best way.

Take time for good books; time to absorb the thoughts of poets and philosophers, seers and prophets.

Friendship, awareness, happiness, all of the arts of the good life, are brilliant beads strung on the golden cord of love.

Love is the dynamic motivation behind every worthy purpose; it is the upward thrust that lifts men to the heights.
